it was this horrible incident that occurred in benghazi was not done by the libyan people. it was done by terrorists who have nothing but contempt for the democracy in libya which is unfolding and that is why they would take their action against the consulate as they did do. there were about seven libyans who died, the numbers are yet coming in. and of course they're subject to being revised. but there were a number of libyans who lost their lives trying to defend that consulate. i think that americans should keep that in mind. also should keep in mind that as these -- the outbreak of these protests across the mideast, you have one in yemen, in egypt, in libya, it's important to point out that leaders of the countries have apologized for these things, particularly yemen, libya, and eventually egypt got there. it's important to point out that americans should know that this is not representative of certainly the will of the libyan people and there are a lot of people across the region who support the united states and support a good relationship with the united states. we sh
